FAQ

What is oEmbed

oEmbed is a simple API that allows a website to display embedded content (such as photos or videos) when a user posts a link to that resource. It was designed to avoid copying and pasting HTML from the media you wish to embed.

By default, you can only embed content from websites listed on WordPress’ internal whitelist. This is to prevent the embedding of malicious content from untrustworthy websites.

To add an oEmbed provider, read the following article for more info:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds#Adding_Support_For_An_oEmbed-Enabled_Site

The other option is you can override WordPress’ internal whitelist and enable any site that is oEmbeddable by downloading and activating Viper007Bond’s Enable oEmbed Discovery plugin.You should only activate the oEmbed Discovery plugin if you trust your user base. You’ve been warned.
